At the same time, Sheyan received a notification.
[Warning: Cracks have appeared in your relationship with important storyline character 'Supervisor Parker'. Your relationship may deteriorate at any moment.]
Naturally, Sheyan's insatiable request had incurred the displeasure of Parker. Instead, Sheyan maintained an unperturbed expression and smiled.
"I will definitely convey your sincerity to my supervisor at 120%, and urge him to sign the investment agreement as soon as possible."
Thus, Sheyan successfully shook hands with the avatar main character who had yet to possess a soul. During this process, Sheyan had already prepared a specially made needle hidden between his fingers, piercing into the avatar's palm and sucked out a drop of blood. It was truly flawless. When the others weren't paying attention, Sheyan then used the excuse of going to the washroom to drip the drop of blood onto the avatar.
'Chris?' Redfield's' Lucky Bracelet 'instantly displayed a distinct transformation.

Now that he had achieved one of his three objectives, Sheyan could finally heave a long sigh of relief. At this moment, he bade farewell to Supervisor Parker and exited the laboratory. Reef then contacted Sheyan.
"Boss, Zi and Flint Light's negotiations fell apart. She wants to hire us to fight for her and help her complete that damned mission."
Sheyan smiled and said, "That's right.
"Don't be in a hurry to answer her, drag it out."
Mogensha immediately chuckled and replied.
"That's right, we can be said to be a rare commodity worth hoarding. Regardless of which side we lean towards, we have an absolute advantage. Since we're selling, we'll definitely sell to the highest bidder. Dragging it out will be better. "
Sheyan earnestly replied.
"I've never thought of helping them complete that final follow-up side mission. The difficulty of that mission, I'm afraid it's beyond everyone's imagination. Otherwise, how can I bear to give it up? "
Mogensha was puzzled.
"At this moment, the Omaticaya here is still very friendly to humans. Even if the exploration fails, at most we will be chased back with our tails between our legs. The difficulty of plucking the calyx of the Tree of Souls shouldn't be too big of a risk."
Sheyan squinted his eyes and replied.
"If I remember correctly, in the original storyline, the coordinates of the Tree of Souls were given to the colonel by the protagonist Jack Sully, and the colonel regarded it as very important information."
Reef instantly understood the aftertaste of Sheyan's words.
"You mean, the target of this final side mission is not the real Tree of Souls?"
"It's very likely." Sheyan earnestly continued. "Currently, those Growth-hunters have already left this world. If the realm wants to increase the difficulty, then it can only do so in the natural environment. The difficulty of the first side mission, the beast tide, is needless to say, testing a contestant's strength and courage. The second side mission is obviously leaning towards testing a contestant's intelligence and communication skills. As for the third side mission, which is also the final side mission, from the fact that only 3 contestants are required to complete it, it is most likely testing the contestants' unity. Do you think they can be united?
Sheyan's words caused Reef and Mogensha to be convinced.
Sheyan then continued.
"No matter if Zi or Flint comes looking for you, you have to feign civility and do your best to give them the impression that you're a rare commodity worth hoarding. Hmph hmph, as long as we drag it out for 24 hours, they will naturally be busy with their own missions like monkeys on fire. Even if they know we don't have the heart to help, they won't have the time to care! What we want to do, we cannot afford to make any mistakes. Especially when we're just starting out, one wrong word, and the whole board will be lost! "
Mogensha was slightly worried as he asked.
"But within the RDA data we obtained, there isn't anything we want. I reckon that Professor Grace hid it from us, and didn't write it out. If not, any random person would be able to sit in her position. But boss, your relationship with her is already one of enmity … … .don't tell me you want me and Reef to curry favour with her? "
"No need." Sheyan calmly replied. "Even if you two cram Buddha's feet at the last minute, I reckon it's too late. Moreover, you might not even know the truth. In this world, the answer to what we want, might not necessarily be what Professor Grace knows. "
Reef muttered.
"Don't tell me … … .you wish to ask the Omaticaya clan?"
Sheyan's eyes flickered with a glint.
"That's right! The reason why I didn't consider the Omaticaya clan before was because I lacked an entry point. Furthermore, I haven't personally witnessed the Omaticaya clan's attitude towards humans. But after witnessing Tsu'tey a few days ago, this idea sprouted in my mind. "
"The RDA company and the Omaticaya clan have been at peace for over a decade. It definitely can't be said that the Omaticaya clan has no desires towards the earthlings. During their honeymoon period, at the very least, the children of the Omaticaya clan had attended the school established by Dr. Grace. The reason why they had reached this stage of war, was because the Pandora ores around Hell's Gate had already been completely extracted. Their only choice was the piece beneath the Omaticaya clan's garden tree. Thus, it led to the emergence of an irreconcilable conflict!"
"But we are different. Moreover, the RDA data we spent a huge sum to purchase isn't useless. It records the Omaticaya clan's favorite thing … … .that is alcohol! Strong alcohol! These few days, I've already collected several kilograms of strong alcohol through the 'Endless Vodka'! In addition, I've purchased a relatively large amount from the restaurant. It's already sufficient to establish a good relationship with them, and more than enough. Let us set off now! "
*****
Even though Sheyan had grasped the detailed coordinates of the Omaticaya clan's Hometree, even if it was a straight line, it still spanned over a hundred kilometres. Traversing through the dense primitive forest, even a valiant contestant would require at least 3 hours to traverse, and that was under the premise of not encountering any wild beasts.
Of course, it wasn't that Sheyan hadn't considered using an Overlord, but he still had some misgivings. This was because the Overlord didn't possess any self-defense capabilities. Without an escort, it would be hard to deal with sudden situations. Moreover, it wasn't easy to determine how the Omaticaya clan would react to a flying Overlord.
Hence, Sheyan once again thickened his face and sought out Supervisor Parker. Without expending much effort, he heard that a Samson shuttle would be executing a flight mission tomorrow. He requested for the pilot to escort them to a location 10 kilometres away from the Omaticaya clan's Hometree. As for the rest, they would settle it themselves. Such a minor matter could be easily handled by Parker, and he satisfied Sheyan's request.
During their flight, Sheyan and the rest witnessed the wondrous spectacle of the floating 'Hallelujah Mountains', and couldn't help but gasp in admiration at such uncanny workmanship. After landing, the trio didn't have much to worry about. Because in the previous 3 days, they had basically adapted to the grotesque and variegated primitive forest of Pandora. Furthermore, they had obtained detailed information from the RDA about the habits of certain creatures, and the topography of the terrain. Thus, they didn't encounter any troubles along the way. After travelling 5 kilometres away from the Omaticaya clan's Hometree, they encountered an Omaticaya cavalry in a fluorescent sunflower forest.
The three cavalry were mounted on 6-legged direhorses, and appeared extremely swift and fierce. Sheyan reckoned their battle prowess was far above those uncivilized tribes he had slain. Instead, they didn't attack, but displayed a rather cold attitude. Once they opened their mouths, they allowed these outsiders to leave. Moreover, they kindly pointed out the direction back to Hell's Gate.
With a flip of his hand, Sheyan pulled Jinkuang out from behind him. Jinkuang immediately strode forward with a face beaming with smiles, his face beaming like a chrysanthemum.
"Brave Omaticaya warriors, we specially came to pay a visit to Prince Tsu 'tey, to thank him for rescuing my nephews from the savage Hammerhead-Titanothere."
As Jinkuang spoke, he fished out 3 simple carved wooden cylinders. Pandora didn't have any bamboo, but there was a type of tree that was hollow without any joints. After some simple processing, it would be an extremely considerate gift to store wine. Under his high charm, the three Omaticaya warriors didn't harbor any enmity, and accepted the gift. First, they sighed in admiration at the exquisite carvings on the wooden cylinders. Then, they sniffed the aroma of the wine within, and couldn't help but raise their heads to drink. Once the wine entered their throats, their faces instantly glowed with radiance, as they exposed a faint smile.
As the saying goes, one's head is short when one eats another's food. Furthermore, Sheyan and the rest had come here with sincerity to thank their tribal warriors. Therefore, the Omaticaya clan's face naturally glowed with splendor, and naturally received a courteous reception. After Jinkuang distributed the gifts in his hands, the entire Omaticaya clan was filled with a rich aroma of wine.
The Na'vi's attitude towards them became even more affectionate. Making an exception, they invited them into their Hometree to entertain them. However, they still didn't unlock any reputation. Most likely, they were waiting for the male lead to obtain the approval of the Tree of Souls seed (That floating dandelion seed in the original storyline). (To be continued.
